Douglas Development Acquires Capitol Hill Mixed-Use Property

Douglas Development has bought a property near Eastern Market that it sees as a long-term hold.

The developer acquired a 6,155 SF mixed-use building at 653 Pennsylvania Ave. SE for $3.65M from The Goldstar Group. Marcus & Millichap's Feldman Group brokered the deal.
